SMITH-MANLOVE Bible Records - These records were in the Bible belonging
to the family of John and Susan (Cecil) Manlove, early settlers near Andover,
Kansas. They came to Kansas from Schuyler Co., Ill. The Smith line was
the maternal line of John Manlove who was born in North Carolina, and who
on his way from there to Illinois met Susan Cecil in Kentucky and brought
her to Illinois and on to Kansas. Other families from Hancock, McDonough
and Schuyler Counties in Illinois came to Andover and settled there in
the 1870's. Relatives remained and to this day are found in the Illinois
area as well as the Andover-Wichita area.

THE
TORNADO
Our county was visited by a terrific wind storm on Thursday evening last,
but little less destructive in its effects than the ever memorable one
of 1856, which destroyed the village of Littleton. It came with a deep,
hoarse, terrifying roar from the south-west at about 9 p.m., passing across
Mr. Parrott's premises, levelling fences and trees and moving his kitchen
partly from its foundations. Its most destructive power was exerted on
the Lock farm, just beyond, where hundreds of large strong trees, some
of them two and three feet over, were hurled to the ground, torn up by
the roots or twisted off, n some instances half way up the trunks. Beyond
Mrs. Lock's it passed over the north side of Geo. Baker's farm, leveling
a mile or more of fence he had just finished resetting. A small out house
belonging to Mr. Bigelow, at the railroad crossing north of town, was carried
some distance and dashed to pieces.
It having missed Rushville less than half a mile, we have good reason to
rejoice at a narrow escape from what would have been a serious calamity
had it struck us. It is fortunate so few houses were in its path. A number
of orchards were badly damaged. The same storm passed Quincy about 8 p.m.
same evening. About twenty miles this side passengers had to help remove
trees and other obstructions thrown on the track.George
